# Skeleton

> Loading placeholders with fade animation

A Skeleton component for React, Tailwind and shadcn by @preetsuthar17, version 1.0.0, MIT licence.

Placeholders that wait 150ms before showing, take the exact size of the content they wrap, and fade it in without moving anything.

## Install

```bash
npx layro-cli add @preetsuthar17/skeleton
```

Or with shadcn: `npx shadcn@latest add https://layro.dev/r/preetsuthar17/skeleton.json`

npm packages: @base-ui/react, class-variance-authority, cn
